FAQ
Is this a Steam tag clone list?
It starts from Steam tags, weighted by how many players voted them and how rare they are, then drops games that play differently: a solo story is never offered to someone looking for a competitive game.
Why is a famous game missing?
Either Shypiard has not profiled it yet, or it shares too little with Dead Space to be a fair match. The list is never padded to reach a round number.
